I thought Drew had posted a TN on this, but couldn't find it. Picked it up at Costco a couple of weeks ago at $10.99 per. Solid berry flavors, stout enough to get my attention with 15.5% ABV. Might improve a bit with another couple in hiding, but I'd buy & consume more at the price and progression point. With frozen pizza 'cuz I didn't want to spend a Barbera d'Alba.

I have yet to find a dog in Clines portfolio. Live Oaks is good as well. Will be more than the ancient vines, but very, very good. Retails here for $23.00, yet if Costco has it I'm sure it will be less than that.

Look for Cline's latest project - Red Truck. Very limeted production, but it is a combination of 6 grapes (Mourvedre, Syrah, Cab Sauvignon, Cab Franc, Alicante Bouschet, and Pinot Noir) that never touches wood. A very interesting. Give it a try.

I saw the Red Truck in a place called World Market last week and didn't realize it was made by Cline. Seems like the price was $7 or so. Passed it by in favor of a few '00 Cline Los Carneros Syrah (4291 cases made), which are now asleep in the cellar.
